7 Days of Grandkids

It has been several days since I've visited the blogging world. I have been tending grandkids, while their wonderful mom works on the family cabin.
Here are a few pictures from the work in progress. This first one is looking up the mountain side to the Southeast from the cabin site. It has rained, and rained, and rained
and still they work, and work, and work!

The west wall is done now.. it looks huge!

The kids and I weren't much help.
We just did a lot of walking around.

I have loved being with the grandkids in their home for the week. In fact when I dropped them off at school today, I was actually crying because I knew I wouldn't be the one picking them up this afternoon. Lucky for me....they were just excited about seeing friends at school.

I drove home with a few tears and lots of afternoon traffic. There is much to do while I'm on a three week break from school, so tomorrow I will start the projects that need my attention. (Getting caught up with my blogging friends is of course the #1 priority!)

Travel Tuesday

Whatever we do, ... we should stop for a few minutes, as often as possible, and praise God from the depths of our hearts, to enjoy Him there in secret. Since we believe that God is always with us, no matter what we may be doing, why can't we stop for awhile to adore Him, to praise Him, to pray to Him, to offer Him our hearts, and to thank Him?

Loafer Canyon is one of those places that can make you stop and realize how serene, peaceful and beauitful the world around us is.
